McKendric Western Style Whiskey

Anyone ever try McKendric? It's quite a bit different from other American whiskeys because it's filtered with mesquite chips. Gives it a sweet, woody quality that's quite a shock at first, but grows on you after a while. The bottle's interesting too...it comes with a leather band about three inches wide around it. I can usually find it for $20 across the state line in SC.

Number three in Dave´s list of archive material by Theron Volkman is spot-on.
He concludes that Thedford indeed is unforgettable, in so far as that it takes an eternity to get rid of that foul taste in your mouth.

Honestly, this was years ago and the brand could very well have improved immensely since then.

I tried the stuff and thought it was amazing... no need to let it grow on me!

Amazing enough that if this were the 1st American whiskey I had ever tried, I would likey be put off for life. Thank goodness I came across it later in my whiskey sampling journey of life!

I honestly would rather walk into a biker bar, dressed head to toe in lycra, turn off the jukebox and order a Campari and soda in a loud effeminate voice than give this whiskey another chance. It really was a shocking taste to me (kinda similar to the herby flavour of Campari that I tried at a wedding for a laugh and NOT a biker bar!) and one I am not in a hurry to repeat.
